On May 24th last year, Yoo Ah-in left Mapo Police Station after the arrest warrant was rejected and on his way to the car, the actor was hit by a plastic bottle containing coffee thrown by a citizen.
The scene where Yoo Ah-in looked back after the bottle hit his leg was captured on camera. After that, Yoo Ah-in’s pants were stained with coffee.
At that time, it was said to be an accident caused by an ordinary citizen passing by the police station. However, the incident turned out to have been planned by a 15-year-old male student.
On January 25th, Yonhap News TV reported that middle school student A, who used to target Rep. Baek Hyun-jin of the ruling People Power Party with stones, was the same person who sprayed coffee and threw the bottle at Yoo Ah-in.
A turned himself in and admitted that he was the person who threw the coffee bottle at Yoo Ah-in. Regarding the reason for his action, A said, “As I watched the reports about the drug allegations of Yoo Ah-in, whom I have hated since before, I got so angry, so I thought I should teach him a lesson”.
A reportedly made a request to the media, saying “If you have a picture of me, please provide it”. Later, it was also confirmed that A is the same person who threw a wallet at the warrant examination for the Gyeongbokgung Palace doodling copycat crime.
From the perspective of the police, they cannot reveal A’s records now but they are investigating the motive of the crime by identifying his past behaviors through the examination of his phone history.
